In short, social media is a Two-Way Sword to me. It depends on the user and how they are using it, for the positive or the negatives. In my case, I would say it is slowing me down and wasting a lot of my valuable time, I am dying to get rid of this addiction.

Damn, you got an amazing benefit from your social media, yeah I do have some such cases too that I am grateful for. Even today I have many things for which I am relying on social media and can't quit it completely. One of the biggest reasons is that I might lose connection with many of my friends, and might not get any updates about them, also I may get detached from the happenings around me.

But that's also true, it's eating a big chunk of my daily time that could have yielded a thousand times better benefits for me if utilized properly. Also, the fake life you mentioned is also true, showoff is one of the things people most want to carry there. Well, I would love to get rid of this Social Media addiction anyhow, working on it but no progress. Let's see what's coming ahead.....
